Matthew Hurst “If Everyone Cared” By: Nickelback

Section 1- He describes where they are at and then he says, “I never dreamed you’d be mine” and I think he means that in his eyes she was too good for him.

Section 3- He goes on in a rhyme scheme that explains ho if everyone loved and cared for each other as much as they did then the world would be a better place.

Section 6- in this section he says that they will show the world how to love and teach them how to love.

Section 8-9 – these parts are the same as section 3

Section 10- now he realizes how big the world is and if everyone could love like they do then the world would be a much different place.

Section 11-12 –the same as section 3

Section 13- this is the ending stanza and he says we’d see the day when nobody died. I think it means that there love will set good examples and soon everyone would love like them.

Title- the title means that if everyone cared and loved each other as much as they do then everything would be more peaceful.

Question 1- the love statement that these lyrics are trying to make is that love is powerful and it has the ability to save people and stop violence.

Question 2- I totally agree with the statement it might not be able to save the whole world but it could defiantly change the lives of a lot of people.

Question 3- there is a definite rhyme scheme in most of the stanzas in this song. The style of this song is Slow Rock but at some points it gets a little louder and faster.
